FLAGSTAFF. ARIZONA,
 March Sist, 1887.

L<NN'S slNiLONN,
 March 3ist, 1887. Dear sir:--
 In your issue of the a4th inst, also in the weekly of the goth, is aR edito- rial paragraph referring 10 the recent killing of John N. Berry, of thls place and the subsequent staying ul his as sallant, Geo. Hawks aud the latters brother, w. Hawks by an armed mob. You say:
 "The one sided reports received al the time Of the killing tended to con, vey the impression tha, there wa' some justification tor the killing. Subsequent information however zoe, to show that Berry, who was killed had made use of the most disgusting and vulgar cpithet toward the elder boy and that the younger handed him a revolver saying il he did not resent It he WAS no,brother of his. F e'took the pistol and instead of attempting to shoot Berry, tried ftoS strike hin with it when Berry clinched hun ana the pistol fell to the floor and was dis charged, the ball ranging upward: towards or into the ceiling. This is part of the story claimed by the other side and if one half that IS said is true the subject is one which call. for the punishment of all who were connected with the killing of the Hawks brothers.
 This statement is totally at vari ance with the truth.
 The late Mir. Berry used no vulgar epithet towards George Hawks either at the time he was shot or at any time previous. Neither did he take any part in any quarrel. The quarrel be. gan between George Hawks and a man by the name of Lamb, who was struck on the head by pistol in Geo Hawks hand. MT. Berry simply in, terfered in an endeavor to seperate the combatants, and when endeavor ing to wrest the pistol away from George Hawks hands, and while Der. y had holdaof the barrel of the pis. tol, Hawks shot him through the stomach. These are the facts as sworn to by witnesses before the Justice oi the Peace when Hawks was arrested and brought up for examination the same day that the shooting occurred.
 The false statements you.have pub lished were doubtless foisted upon you by some friend or associate ofthe man who shot John N. Berry. In replying to 1t, and showing it's utter falsity, am simply defending a man who is in his grave and cannot defend himself.

Good Results in Every Case.

W. A. Bradford, wholesale paper dealer of Chattanooga, Tenn, writes that he was seriously afflicted with a severe cold that settled on his lungs: had tried many many remedies with out benefit. Being induced to try Dr. Kings New Discovery for Con- sumption, did so and was entirely cured by the use of few bottles since which time he has used 1t in his family for all Coughs and Colds with best results. This is the experience of thousands whose lives have been saved by this Wonderful Discovery. Trial bottles free at D. J. Brannen & Co'sDrug Store,

States Minister to Chill, arrived in New
York early Thursday morning, on the
Pacific Mail steamship Newport, from
Aspinwall Accompanying the remains
were Mrs. L. " Fitzpatrick and her daugh-
tiers Julia and Laura Since the death of
the General his body has been inferred in a
vault in Chill. where the Government re-
quires an interm9nt of two years before it
can be removed Several circumstances
prevented its removal at an earlier date,
and not until now has Mrs. Fitzpatrick
been able to come to this country to have
the body properly inferred. Among those
who received the remains were Thomas
Margarum, executor of the Generals es
tate W. A. Stiles, William r. Madison,
O. W. Cook, Maj. W. B. Shafer, Capt.
Hatch, R. r. Pangborn. A. G. Tully and
V. P. Walling, of Deckertown, the Gen>
erals old home. 1t was generally sup
posed that the interment would take place
in Deckertown, but Mrs. Fitzpatrick in
formed the Reception Committee that it
was the Generals dying request that his
body be laid in the National Cemetery at
the United States Military Academy, West
Point. N. Y. The body will remain on
the Newport until the arrival of Sydney
Everitt, Chief of the Diplomatic Bureau
of the State Department, who has been

Thebest way TO maintain the advantages
now held by the American workingmen
oyer their brethren of foreign lands is by
supporting the system and principle of
government which has brought about the
advantages. No one questions in serious
ness that the great Republican party doc
trine of Protection to home industries has
brought about this good result, and the
working people ought to stand by the party
which by introducing and sustaining this
principle in national government has done
so much for them.

The Evangelical Alliance.

A general conference of all Evangeli-
cal Christians in the United States has
been called by some of the most promi-
nent Christian workers in the country.
1t is to be held in Washington on Deem
Der 18th, 9th and 9th, under the direc-
ton of the Evangelical Alliance for the
United States. Its objects will be to
discover the perils that threaten the
Christian Church whether they can be
met by hearty cooperation of Evan
gelical interests, and what are the best
means to secure such cooperation. In
their call for the convention the promo
tiers of the plan say:
The Christian Church has not yet fully
recognized It's relations to the inner life
Of the community and the nation Even
Christian men, preoccupied with private
concerns and oyerburdened by the de-
mands on their time, are prone to neglect
the public welfare and are loath to ac-
cept any responsibility for existing evils.

intent on its own good work, have fallen

There is no public school house in
Butler, thriving business town of Morris
county and now numbering something
like two thousand inhabitants This
sounds very strange for progressive and
enlightened county of New Jersey in this
year of grace 1887, and yet it is true. The
town of Butler is largely made up
Of families interested in the great Rubber
Works there, and it is largely Catholic
community They have Catholic paro-
chial schools, but no public school such as
the law of the State contemplates. True
large majority of the children of Butler
are thus provided with school facilities
and, indeed, we are informed, many if not
all protestant children have access TO these
schools, and are therefore not entirely de-
prived of educational facilities But it is
not fairto presume that sectarian school;
will forever continue to educate children
other than their own, nor should they Of
asked to do so. In doing so now they
simply supply charity that the STATE
should supply 1t may be that large
proportion of the taxpayers being Catho
lies and maintaining their own schools from
choice, they prefer to educate protestan
children rather than bear the additiona
expense of State school tax, which would
be practically paying two school taxes, al
they would maintain their parochia
schools in any event. But the laws o.
New Jersey provide for public education
and prominent community of the State
has not availed itself of this liberal pro-
vision, hence the situation.

The Republican County Convention
meets in Moristown on Monday next, TO
nominate ticket to be supported at the
coming election. 1t is scarcely necessary
to say to Republicans that it behooves
them to nominate strong ticket Morris
is not necessarily Republican county,
and we therefore cannot afford to discount
any chances of the opposition. There is a
strong disposition on the part of Dem
ocrats to nominate only their best men,
and we may therefore look for strong
opposition. If the Convention next Mon
day acts wisely and dominates men whose
personal character and qualifications stamp
them as strong before their fellow men,
it will then haYe done well, and united
party work and victory will be the re-
suit.
